Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Our niece is going hardcore Trump supporter. She "came out" in a post on FB about a month ago. It is odd, because she married at 19, had two kids and divorced before she was 22 and has been on some form of public assistance ever since she left home. She moved in with her parents a few years ago and they're pretty much raising her kids--she has some mental health issues which make it unlikely she'll ever work full-time. She can't seem to se that he is actively working against her interests. It's sad.

Thrive to spite them

Matthew's mom came and told me that retail stores could reopen and asked when I'd go back to work. I told her I don't know just because the Gov said they could reopen tomorrow doesn't mean my store will. They closed before they were ordered to

I said people are going to die and she replied "people are starving because they don't have money". And was kind of dismissive when I pointed out the government should be doing things to protect and help people instead of insisting we risk our lives.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Unfortunately there are more than a few people who vote against their interests(whether they realize it or not) out there.

JAR coming out surprises me less than ... like, there are grown adults out there who aren't out? I mean, was this a new thing for him to realize or did he think he needed to be in the closet for his career all this time?

Anyway, good for him for being true to himself and I hope nobody gives him shit about it.

I like my new desk chair but it's just a little too high so I have to wear my Dansko clogs. And I think it's less ergonomic than my desk chair at work.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I haven't found any mentions of JAR coming out. Good for him, regardless.

PA had its turn for idiot protesters today. Some purposefully created gridlock and abandoned cars in an intersection that is a direct route taken by many ambulances to the hospital. It's infuriating and I have zero sympathy for these assholes. Some people had kid in wagons and no masks, with no social distancing. I just can't.

Because books.

-t, or other mathy people, could I ask you to check my math before I turn something in to my boss? She has me costing recipes, and while I think I'm doing it right, I want to be sure -- she majored in statistics and has High Math Expectations.

Herding cats for fun

I'm really looking forward to seeing how many shutdown protesters get sick.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I mean, was this a new thing for him to realize or did he think he needed to be in the closet for his career all this time?

It sounds like he's playing a gay character and felt that it was necessary to come out in order to honestly portray this character.

I hope if any ambulances were delayed they are arrested and charged with like, assault or manslaughter or something. That is evil.
